Bio
Brooke Jensen
I worked with Conor for about 6 years while at True Friends. Conor is an excellent problem solver, incredibly fast learner, and great relationship builder. I especially admire his ability to prioritize his time and projects while leading many different departments within the organization. Maintaining connections with various vendors, donors, and community groups was easy for Conor, which in turn made projects go smoothly. Conor was a tremendous asset to the True Friends team and I am confident that wherever he works, he will continue to be an impactful leader and team member.

I have had the pleasure of working with Conor for over 7 years. In my role on the facilities committee and Board at True Friends. I have also worked close with Conor on projects and initiative execution. I have always been amazed at his ability to understand the big picture, vision/strategy and the importance of details in execution. He has a knack for reaching out to gather perspective and executes said vision/initiative. Put simply, his abilities would be an asset to any organization.
